After a brief discussion with JJ, I recently bought a Princeton Tec-40, to
evaluate it and see how well I liked it.  (This was before the very recent
announcement of the WKPP backup light.)  The idea was that if I liked it, I
would buy a second one.

Well, the very first time I had the light in water, at max 15 ffw in a pool
at that, I flooded it.  To make it worse, I didn't notice immediately that
I'd done it, and the chlorine ate the reflector.

I wrote Princeton a letter, asking about prices for replacement parts (I
assumed it was my fault), and asking them how to avoid the problem down the
road.

Princeton replaced the light.  No charge.

I didn't expect that.
